The one who walked alone

I don't know who will read this blog, not a lot of people I guess but it doesn't really matter who does or does not read this. When I was in school, one of the first things I was taught is that man is a social animal and that he cannot live alone. I never quite understood the true meaning of this statement until recently; but what I always believed was that we don't need a lot of people around us, that quality rather than the quantity mattered in this case.

But recent experiences have shattered my beliefs! So, today I ask myself, Am I really a social animal? Going by superficial observation, the answer would be no, I don't trust people so easily (In most cases hardly at all!), never use my orkut account, never chat and recently even deleted my facebook account ( a sin for some people but not a big deal guys, really!). Anyone who reads these facts will say that I'm a loner and I would have to agree!

But then deep down, am I really that different? I have two families whom I love, a girlfriend (whom I can't understand these days but still love very much), some friends whom I will always love. Just because I think my life is complete and I don't need new people makes me a loner?

People always say that we should not be judgemental about others, but is that possible? When we are talking to someone, are we not constantly trying to figure them out? When somebody is addressing us are they not making an impression? So isn't everybody judging somebody all the time?

Today I have come to the crossroads of my life, I know the right path but for the first time I feel like I'm not strong enough to take it. I guess this is what happens when your strengths turn into your weeknesses! I must continue on my path alone because the truth is my friends that we are all alone. Nobody can be really with you, I don't know here my journey will lead me or even for that matter if I will make it to where I want to reach. I guess even after loving people with all my heart, I will still be "The one who walked alone".
